Like many of the other companies finding reviews on our pageslately, Cooler master's claims to fame come from eternally supporting theenthusiast edge of the industry. Though their start was found in coolingproducts, Cooler Master went on to begin producing branded fans, heatsinks,power supplies, and even liquid cooling systems. In that vein, the V8 ismore or less a rectification to this departure - a step by Cooler Master toreturn themselves into the realm of performance cooling.

With that said, it's time to see whatthis latest offering can do.
